Anyone else happen to catch The McLaughlin Group this weekend? One of the topics dealt with whether or not Congress would approve the US' participation in the IMF bailout of S. Korea. Overwhelming sentiment appeared to be that Congress would not approve this measure.

Wonder how this might influence stocks that have recently cited Asian market problems as the reason for poor performance.

Good luck on Tuesday.
